One of my favorite things about spring is the return of local festivals. A few weekends ago my friends and I went to Philly Punk Rock Flea Market. More than just a flea market, the market features a wide variety of local makers, offering everything from homemade hot sauce to original books. The event takes place in different locations throughout Philadelphia during the year, with the next installment in July. The day we visited happened to be a perfect spring day, and we enjoyed browsing the stalls before strolling into Center City for drinks and lunch.
This weekend my town’s farmers market opens for the season. Its location is walking distance from my house, so in addition to the great products available, it also makes for a fun community activity for my family and friends. My town (Collingswood) hosts many festivals and events throughout the year, with some kicking off in April and May. In the next few weekends alone there will be a town-wide yard sale, vintage market, second Saturday event, buy-nothing event, plus the weekly farmers market.

Thinking ahead to fall 2026, I’m already excited to host Porchfest in late September and attend other autumnal festivals.

Nov 6, 2026Nature and Nordic Culture Ensure a Perfect Pace for Exploring Stockholm
Crowned the “Capital of Scandinavia,” Stockholm stands at the epicenter of modern Nordic movements that — much like their Viking forebears — have swept across the globe. From art to design to cuisine, the Swedish city entices business and leisure travelers alike. Also fitting for its Viking history: the capital’s waterfront positioning, situated across 14 islands where Lake Mälaren meets the Baltic Sea. For a country that infamously sees little sunshine in the winter months, outdoor pursuits remain popular year-round, from hiking to sailing to ice-skating.
